Therefore, variation in temperature of the object to be processed during the heat treatment is suppressed, and the state of the object to be processed after the heat treatment becomes uniform.

- FIG. 8 is an enlarged view of a cross section of the inner pipe 5 of the gas supply pipe 1 according to the second embodiment of the present invention.
- an insertion member 10 having a cross-shaped cross section and a partition wall shape is inserted into the inside 6. Therefore, the surface area inside the inner tube 5 is the sum of the surface area of the inner tube 5 itself and the surface area of the insertion member 10, and compared with the case where the inner tube 5 is a simple cylinder, The contact area becomes larger. That is, the insertion member 10 has a structure 9 that increases the contact area with the gas supplied from the gas supply source inside the inner tube 5.
- the Mohs hardness of the material of the insertion member 10 is preferably equal to or less than the Mohs hardness of the material of the inner tube 5. In this case, the inside of the inner tube 5 is not damaged when the insertion member 10 is inserted into the inner tube 5.
- the thermal expansion coefficient of the insertion member 10 is preferably the same as or close to the thermal expansion coefficient of the material of the inner tube 5. In this case, when the insertion member 10 is thermally expanded in a high temperature environment, excessive stress is not applied to the inner peripheral surface of the inner tube 5 and the inner tube 5 is not damaged.
- the insertion member 10 inserted into the inside of the inner tube 5 is exemplified by a cross-shaped partition wall, but is not limited thereto.
- an assembly of thread-like members may be inserted as an insertion member 10 into the inside 6 of the inner tube 5. Since the aggregate of the thread-like members has a large surface area, the contact area with the supplied gas can be increased even with a small amount.
- the inside of the inner tube 5 is not damaged when inserted into the inner tube 5. Further, when the thermal expansion is performed in a high temperature environment, excessive stress is not applied to the inner peripheral surface of the inner tube 5, and the inner tube 5 is not damaged.
- FIG. 10 is an enlarged view of a cross section of the inner pipe 5 of the gas supply pipe 1 according to the third embodiment of the present invention.
- a part of the tube wall of the inner tube 5 protrudes toward the central axis of the inner tube 5 so that the cross section becomes a mountain shape. Therefore, the surface area itself of the inside 6 of the inner tube 5 is larger than when the inner tube 5 is a simple cylinder. That is, this protruding structure is a structure 9 that increases the contact area with the gas supplied from the gas supply source in the inside 6 of the inner tube 5. It is preferable that this projecting structure reaches as close to the central axis of the inner tube 5 as possible. Thereby, the contact area with the gas supplied from the gas supply source can be sufficiently increased inside the inner pipe 5.
- a part of the tube wall of the inner tube 5 protrudes in a mountain shape toward the central axis of the inner tube 5, but is not limited thereto.
- a part of the tube wall of the inner tube 5 may protrude toward the central axis of the inner tube 5 so that the cross section is substantially rectangular.
- the first to third embodiments may be combined.
- the inner tube 5 may be a porous tube, and the insertion member 10 may be inserted into the small hole.
- the inner tube 5 may be a perforated tube and have a protruding structure inside the small hole.
- each component of the gas supply pipe 1 of the present invention is appropriately selected according to the purpose of use.
- a high melting point ceramic material such as alumina that can withstand a high-temperature oxidizing atmosphere can be used.
- a metal material such as stainless steel may be used.
- the gas supply pipe 1 of the present invention may be used for the purpose of heating a low-temperature gas supplied from a gas supply source at the ambient temperature of the gas supply pipe 1.
- a high temperature gas supplied from a gas supply source may be used for the purpose of cooling at the ambient temperature of the gas supply pipe 1.
- Gas supply pipe 2. Outer pipe, 3. Outer pipe through hole, 5.
- Inner pipe 6. Inside of inner pipe, 6a, 6b, 6c small hole, 7. Clearance between outer pipe and inner pipe, 9.
- Contact area with gas 10 insert member, 11 heat treatment device, 12 furnace body, 18 gas supply mechanism, 19 heating mechanism, 27 workpieces.

Abstract
Description
この発明に係るガス供給管は、上記のように、供給されるガスをガス供給管に伝わった周囲空間の温度に充分なじませることができる。したがって、この発明に係るガス供給管を用いた熱処理装置では、供給された雰囲気ガスが、炉体の内部空間の温度に充分になじみ、予熱された状態で、炉体内部に放出される。そのため、熱処理中の被処理物の温度のばらつきが抑制され、被処理物の熱処理後の状態が均一となる。その結果、熱処理後の被処理物を用いて製造される各種製品の性能のばらつきがなく、製品の歩留まりを高くすることができる。
この発明の第1の実施形態に係るガス供給管1について、図1A,図1B,図1Cおよび図2A,図2B,図2Cを用いて説明する。
この発明の第2の実施形態に係るガス供給管1の内側管5について、図8を用いて説明する。
この発明の第3の実施形態に係るガス供給管1の内側管5について、図10を用いて説明する。
